def multiply(s1, s2): print('{arg1} * {arg2} = {res}'.format(arg1=s1, arg2=s2, res=s1*s2)) return s1 * s2 asequence = [1, 2, 3] Given an initializer the function is started by applying it to the...

reduce will not terminate the iteration before the iterable has been completly iterated over so it can be used to create a non short-circuit any() or all() function: import operator # non short-circuit "all" reduce(operator.and_, [False, True, True, True]) # = False # non short-circu...
# First falsy element or last element if all are truthy: reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, [], 20, 10]) # = [] reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, 50, 20, 10]) # = 10 # First truthy element or last element if all falsy: reduce(lambda i, j: i or j, [100, [], 20, 0]) # = 100 reduce(la...
